1. The most I’ve spent this last week was on the new iPad! We bought one using our tax refund and already I’m spoiled. I think it may be the first technology thing I have purchased on the day it was released — I feel so high-tech!
2. Today I am thankful for a chance to renew my energy this weekend. I don’t like complaining about work on here, but here’s just a fact: Work has been kicking my butt lately. So a relaxing weekend was just what I needed to keep my sanity around here.
3. Money can’t buy happiness. One free thing I did last week that made me happy was read on my balcony in the warm sun on Saturday. I even got a little color to my pale white arms!
4. I will consider this week a success if I pick out my outfit and make lunches every evening for work the next day.
5. If I could afford one unnecessary luxury, I would pay someone to go grocery shopping for me. I always seem to go at the busiest times and there’s always something I end up missing when I get home. Thankfully I live close to a grocery store, but one day when we have kids, I’ll probably fork out the cash for a grocery service.
